When a player acquires assets in a game like World of Warcraft, Ultima Online, or Runescape, they are at the whim of the company to stay in business and keep servers online. A decentralized game built on the blockchain can keep in operation, with assets retaining value, for as long as users desire them to. Not to mention how much easier it is to transfer assets when blockchain-connected accounts are involved.⁣
⁣
The company has yet to release a game, but today announced that it had raised $16 million in funding from five different venture capital firms including Galaxy Digital’s EOS VC fund and OKCoin.⁣
⁣
A press release reads in part:⁣
⁣
“The funding will support the company’s first-to-market plans to develop and co-produce a slate of high-quality game titles (on mobile / PC / console) built around new player economies and user-generated content. The investment was led by Galaxy Digital’s EOS VC Fund, with significant participation from Javelin Venture Partners as well as DDC, Fenbushi, Noris, and OkCoin joining the round.”⁣
⁣
Made up of former Blizzard, Activision, and Yahoo! executives and employees, the company will now presumably begin building out its first offerings. According to Galaxy Digital CEO and billionaire crypto bull Mike Novogratz, gaming is an item of keen interest to the VC firm:⁣
⁣
“We believe that gaming – and specifically players’ interaction with in-game economies and virtual goods – will play a key role in how the masses first discover the true potential of the blockchain. Mythical’s experience building rich and immersive game worlds will be invaluable to this mission.”⁣

According to the press release sent out by the TRON Foundation, the blockchain innovation program is set to launch Nov. 17th, giving a small glimmer of hope as market prices continue to see red. TRON was able to recover a few percentage points of the price fall experienced across the board of cryptocurrencies, but–regardless of the current valuation–is doing its part to continue driving interest and furthering development in the industry. As many analysts have pointed out during 2018’s ongoing bearish market, the space of cryptocurrency has grown exponentially in terms of product development and consumer adoption, with industries as far reaching as car manufacturers and social media platforms seek to integrate crypto and blockchain.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Accompanying the press release were a few details on the accelerator program, with the focus seemingly on building novel and interesting projects rather than rehashing what has already been done in terms of cryptocurrency capacity. The early stages of the program are geared towards supporting developers and startups creating DApps using the TRON network, an interesting proposition for creators given the rising transactional volume of TRON and the 600,000+ active TRX wallets,⁣⁣
⁣⁣
“TRON Accelerator is a 1,000,000 USD online competition rewarding up to 56 winning DApp projects across multiple categories. First prize features a 200,000 USD reward. Prizes are product based. Teams can submit multiple products and potentially win multiple prizes.”⁣⁣

Olaoluwa Osuntokun (25), Nader Al-Naji (26), JB Rubinovitz (26) and Hunter Horsley (28) have made their debut on this year’s list after applying blockchain technology to solve real world problems through their various startups.⁣
⁣
Olaoluwa Osuntokun is featured this year because of his work on creating a scaling solution for the Bitcoin blockchain. The Lightning Labs co-founder who moved to the U.S. from Nigeria as a child has successfully raised more than $2.5 million toward increasing bitcoin transaction speed with the aim of someday making bitcoin a usable and reliable system for carrying out relatively low-value transactions in the manner of Venmo and Cash App.⁣
⁣
Nader Al-Naji on the other hand, has raised more than $133 million from a stellar list of investors including Bain Capital, Andreessen Horowitz and Stanley Druckenmiller to develop Basis, a U.S. Dollar-pegged stablecoin which aims to replace central banks in countries suffering from currency volatility such as Venezuela and Zimbabwe. Unlike most existing stablecoins, ⁣
⁣
JB Rubinovitz on his part is the co-founder of Bail Bloc, which uses a cryptocurrency mining framework to raise bail for qualified individuals who cannot afford it. ⁣
⁣
Hunter Horsley, the CEO of Bitwise Asset Management currently maintains four cryptocurrency indices that are currently used by over 600 multifamily offices, which is an important element in the evolution and eventual mainstreaming of crypto assets.⁣

The patent applicant is listed as American Express Travel Related Services Co., Inc., the company’s travel subsidiary. The new filing, titled “Linking digital images with related records,” includes a new method for receiving, recording and transmitting the image of a receipt.⁣
⁣
The filing describes how the system lets a user with a mobile device capture the image of a receipt. The system then, via “optical character recognition,” deciphers the image and matches it with “related records,” namely transaction history.⁣
⁣
The filing mentions of the use of “data blocks” and specifies that “Any databases discussed herein may include relational, hierarchical, graphical, blockchain, or object-oriented structure and/or any other database configurations.”⁣
⁣
The reported benefits of using blockchain technology in particular for data storage are further elaborated in the filing:⁣
⁣
“The blockchain structure may include a distributed database that maintains a growing list of data records. The blockchain may provide enhanced security because each block may hold individual transactions and the results of any blockchain executables.”⁣

While it’s too early to tell if this many computers will actually update their software, causing the bitcoin cash network to split, the strong rhetoric employed by those backing the upstart Bitcoin SV software, including Craig Wright, the Australian cryptographer who claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto, suggests this is a possibility.⁣
⁣
Wright in particular has vowed to destroy the ABC network, going so far as to threaten ABC proponents on Twitter.⁣
⁣
Amidst this dialogue, SV’s hash power advantage is up from 73.62 percent just a day ago. In particular, CoinGeek, the platform owned by Wright supporter Calvin Ayre, jumped from controlling about 30.6 percent of the overall hash power to 41 percent.⁣
⁣
In contrast, okminer and Mempool both lost a significant portion of the hash power, falling from 7.64 percent and 6.25 percent respectively to 3.47 percent each.⁣
⁣
Meanwhile, mining pools supporting the Bitcoin ABC implementation spearheaded by Roger Ver have made gains of their own. In particular, Bitcoin.com, Antpool and BTC.com now control 8.33, 4.86 and 6.25 percent of the total hash power respectively. Antpool and BTC.com are controlled by bitcoin cash supporter and hardware giant Bitmain.⁣
⁣
As of yesterday, both of Bitmain’s pools only controlled 2.78 percent of the power each, while Ver’s website had 6.25 percent.⁣

According to Ellenbogen, visitors can purchase admission tickets using cryptocurrencies and visit the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Glenn Visitor Center. The newly launched mobile app utilizes augmented and virtual reality to provide a new experience to visitors.⁣
⁣
“Last year we launched our mobile app that uses augmented and virtual reality to allow guests to experiment with flames in space and test spacecraft designs re-entering Earth’s atmosphere when they visit the NASA Glenn Visitor Center, and now they’ll be able to use their phone to pay for their admission using Bitcoin.”⁣
⁣
The integration of Bitcoin is the second major initiative of the institution following the launch of a new mobile application that utilizes augmented and virtual reality to allow visitors to better experience, study, and evaluate the work NASA is leading.⁣

Crypto World Clock:
•
Have you heard the saying money never sleeps? Well that's Crypto for you all, money and never sleeping.
•
I think one of the most important things beginner traders fail to understand are the most simple and logical things, like for example learning the world clock to know which markets are operating when.
•
Trading is like going to war against the whole world, especially in crypto where the market is open 24/7. Trading crypto can be compared to the table game "Risk" it requires a lot of planning but most importantly getting to know your opponents. Understand who they are and when they are operating so that you can attack them when they expect it the least.
•
You will find that each market behaves differently, get to know how each market operates and you will have an edge over others who are just simple looking at the charts and drawing lines. Take a screenshot, print this and try to replicate it in your charts so that you can learn.

When asked whether he thought blockchain was overrated or underrated, Schmidt gave a compound answer. “In the public format, overrated. In its technical use, underrated,” he said. “Today, blockchain is a great platform for bitcoin and other currencies. And it’s a great platform for private banking transactions where people don’t trust each other.”⁣
⁣
Schmidt believes that exciting developments are occurring with ethereum that could revolutionize business and society.⁣
⁣
“I think the most interesting stuff that’s going on are the beginning of execution on top of blockchain — the most obvious example being the capability of ethereum,” Schmidt said.⁣
⁣
“And if ethereum can manage to figure out a way to do global synchronization of that activity, that’s a pretty powerful platform. That’s a really new invention.”⁣
⁣
That’s a bullish assessment that ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin undoubtedly shares.⁣

Volume Profile is a great tool to understand the footprint of the market at a very granular level. Allows you to understand volume from the Y axis instead of the X axis which is way more powerful that just knowing total volume.
•
This tool allows you to understand the real anatomy of a specific candle or group of candles. Like any other tool is has its benefits but it’s not meant to give buy and sell signals instead just help you find support and resistances.
•
In this example we can see how aggressive has been the buying volume for ZEC, this month buyers have double sellers which is a great sign of momentum and hence why price is going up. Remember that volume proceeds price, the best is yet to come for ZEC and until the market proves is otherwise we will be riding the wave with a long position.

During his days working as a lawyer arguing cases against financial companies, Jeffrey Berns was introduced to the concept of cryptocurrency and its commercial pioneer, Bitcoin.⁣
⁣
Quite taken by the potentialities of the technology he diverted himself to exploring the crypto market, later discovering Ethereum and came to feel it was decidedly the currency to back.⁣
⁣
With its smart contracts, airtight security, self-checking mechanisms, and high transaction speed, Berns has envisioned a community that will no longer be subject to the inefficiencies of traditional banking and corporate institutions. He sold his Ethereum holdings during the crypto-craze of late 2017, and plans to use the technology that made him rich to see others thrive.⁣
⁣
The crypto millionaire, who is funding the entire project himself, envisions the far reaching benefits that blockchain technology can have on the energy industry. In a recent agreement with one of Nevada’s leading energy companies, NV Energy, Berns announced a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) had been reached in which NV Energy has agreed to test and incorporate blockchain in the running of energy transaction.⁣
⁣
Being paid on time, never having to worry about banks losing your money, buying, selling and sharing energy on an equally distributed ledger system, these are samples of some of the lifestyle options that Berns’ crypto utopia hopes to offer.⁣

The market for "Which party will control the House after 2018 U.S. Midterm Election?" has 3,517 ether or nearly $727,000 staked on it at the time of writing, according to Predictions.Global, a website allowing users to view and search for Augur markets.⁣
⁣
The market has surpassed "Will price of Ethereum exceed $500 at the end of 2018?" – for months the market with the most open interest by a wide margin, with $523,000 staked at the time of writing. The mid-terms market is also the most liquid on the platform, according to Predictions.Global, with target liquidity over 250 ether.⁣
⁣
The rush of funds into the mid-terms market – which gives the Democrats a 66 percent chance of taking the House, compared to an 88 percent chance on FiveThirtyEight's poll-based model – has pushed the total dollar amount staked on Augur to a new record: nearly $2.1 million.⁣
⁣
It should be noted, though, that Augur's open interest in ether terms (currently 10,134 ether) has been rising consistently. It was only due to ether's declining exchange rate that dollar-denominated open interest did not exceed its July high until the end of October, as data compiled by the Twitter user "defroi" shows:⁣

Blockchain and the Stellar Development Foundation (stellar.org) will distribute $125 million worth of Stellar lumens [XLM] to Blockchain’s users. Blockchain is claiming this is the largest airdrop in the history of crypto, and potentially the largest consumer giveaway ever — and to most outside observers, it looks that way.⁣
⁣
Critics of the move will, however, may lay the charge that it’s a cynical move akin to cheap marketing techniques. Whatever the case, most people would probably say they’d have quite liked someone to “give them a bitcoin” a few years ago… It remains to be seen, however, what effect it will actually have on the ground in regards to crypto adoption.⁣
⁣
Accessible to anyone with a Blockchain wallet, Blockchain says that the first batch of recipients will receive their lumens, Stellar’s native digital currency, this week — for free. The Stellar network has gained a reputation for scalability, with its lumen token enabling competitively quick, low-cost worldwide transactions. It has its critics however, and not every crypto fan out there will be impressed.⁣
⁣
In a statement, Peter Smith, CEO at Blockchain, said: “At Blockchain, we’re committed to putting our users first. Providing exclusive access to the next generation of cryptoassets allows new and existing users alike to test, try, trade, and transact with new, trusted cryptoassets in a safe and easy way. We’re empowering our users with private keys, which allow them to go beyond just storing their crypto to actually using them. In turn, we can help build a bigger and more engaged crypto community, and drive network effects that make the ecosystem more useful and valuable for the many rather than the few.”⁣

Another Quick Lesson on Market Sentiment:
•
Remember our post from a few days ago about market sentiment? Well here’s another prime example of this. Finally retail margin traders are convinced that BCH is going moon thus why can ser margin longs now surpassing margin shorts, great we are all going to be rich.
•
Well not so fast, the coin has gone up 50% morons, so you really think market makers are going to take you on a free ride with them? Well the answer is no!
•
Notice in the graph how price is starting to retrace as margin longs continue to rise, well there’s a big player dumping his 50%+ gains on you! Don’t be that guy buying the top and buying into formo. Be patient, wait for a reasonable pullback but most importantly, don’t buy the green candles.
